Study demonstrated that miR-23b expression was significantly downregulated following traumatic brain injury (TBI). In model TBI, overexpression of miR-23b reduced the lesion volume, brain edema and neuronal apoptosis, and improves cognitive dysfunction. miR-23b specifically bound with the 3' UTR of ATG12 mRNA and modulated its translation; suppressed neuronal autophagy by directly targeting ATG12 expression.
Title: miR-23b improves cognitive impairments in traumatic brain injury by targeting ATG12-mediated neuronal autophagy.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
